We’re excited to announce that we have partnered with Linode to create a series of “Quick Tips” for setting up your server. The first four videos get new users up to speed with a brand new Linode account and server and in exchange, we have a whole bunch of great promo codes to help you get started for free.

The video tutorials cover signing up for an account, logging into your Linode for the first time, and setting the server’s hostname and timezone. See all the new videos along with written instructions here in the Linode Library:

We’ve been given Linode promo codes as our way of giving Treehouse subscribers access to a free Linode to use in conjunction with the tutorials. Each code is loaded with $50 worth of service credit so that once you complete the tutorials, you will have time to play around with your Linode for a couple of months at absolutely no cost to you.
